Tim Healey Newsday: Mets get messy in loss to Blue Jays, drop into NL wild-card tie.  "Lefthander David Peterson put the Mets in an early hole by allowing a season-high five runs (four earned) in a season-low-tying 4 1/3 innings — as close as he has come all year to a meltdown, even if this wasn’t quite that."

Mike Puma NY Post: David Peterson roughed up, bats go quiet as Mets lose to Blue Jays and fall into wild-card tie. "The Mets managed only three hits in their 3-2 victory on Monday and though they doubled that total a night later struggled to deliver when it mattered, finishing 1-for-8 with runners in position."

Transactions:
Baltimore Orioles claimed Charlie Greene of the New York Mets on waivers on September 11, 1997.

1966
In his debut, Nolan Ryan whiffs the first batter he faces, making Braves pitcher Pat Jarvis the first of strikeouts victims the right-hander will claim during a 27-year Hall of Fame career. The 19 year-old Mets right-hander fans three batters during his two-inning Shea Stadium stint in relief en route to setting a major league mark of 5,714 career strikeouts.
1968
Tying a dubious major league record, Cubs right-hander Ferguson Jenkins loses his fifth 1-0 decision of the season when the Mets and Jim McAndrew beat Chicago with a lone run at Wrigley Field. The Canadian-born hurler will finish the season with a 20-15 record but is 20-6 in games in which his team scores a run.

1974
In a game that will feature a record 202 batters, the Cardinals defeat the Mets in the seven-hour and four-minute Shea Stadium contest, 4-3, with Hank Webb taking the loss after making an errant pickoff throw in the top of the 25th inning that leads to the eventual winning run. Redbird Ken Reitz's two-strike, two-out home run had tied the game in the top of the ninth, making the extra innings necessary.
1987
With his 30th stolen base, Mets third baseman Howard Johnson becomes the first National League infielder to become a member of the 30-30 club. The other players in the Senior Circuit to have 30 home runs and 30 stolen bases in the same season are outfielders Willie MaysHank AaronBobby BondsDale Murphy, and Eric Davis.

1987
In the opening game of a critical series against the Mets, Terry Pendleton, with two outs and two strikes, hits a ninth-inning game-tying home run in the Cardinals' eventual 6-4 overtime victory at Shea Stadium. The Redbirds third basemen's dramatic long ball smashes the windshield of New York starter Ron Darling, who had pitched one-hit ball before being forced to leave the game in the top of the seventh due to severely spraining his right thumb fielding Vince Coleman's bunt single in the prior inning.
1997
In a 9-5 Mets victory over the Expos at Shea Stadium, slow-footed John Olerud legs out an eighth-inning three-run triple to complete the cycle. The New York first baseman becomes the seventh player in franchise history to accomplish the feat.



2011
Major League Baseball denies the Mets' request to wear caps honoring police, firefighters, and other first responders for their September 11th game against Chicago. The hats worn during the pregame ceremony of the remembrance of the tragic event will be autographed and sold on Mets.com, with the proceeds given to charities through the Mets' foundation.
